EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a scene filled with Biblical, mythological, and allegorical performances. In this particular image titled "Herse Agraulos open basket child Erichthonius Biblical" we witness two daughters of King Kekrops, Herse and Agraulos, as they anxiously open a basket entrusted to their sister Pandrosos by Athena. As the basket lies on its side, an astonishing sight unfolds before them - the child Erichthonius emerges from within. However, what sets him apart is his peculiar appearance; he possesses a snake's tail in place of his abdomen. This extraordinary sight drives both Herse and Agraulos to madness while Pandrosos looks on in surprise. The artist behind this thought-provoking piece is Johannes Glauber, who lived between 1656 and 1726. The print itself measures 280 mm in height and 382 mm in width. It was created using paper and etching techniques. This artwork forms part of a larger series that encompasses various biblical narratives as well as mythological and allegorical representations.
